While yours truly would have written a different position statement, the bottom line would have been the same. Of course, not all college students desire to go into STEM fields, but an inadequate high school background could deprive them of that choice.

I agree
As blog readers will know, yours truly sometimes agrees or disagrees or partially agrees with positions taken by the Council of UC Faculty Associations (which can be seen if you read the blog with a PC) towards upper right. In any case, I agree with the Council's position on supporting the BOARS recommendations regarding high school math. Specifically, current algebra requirements should not be replaced by "data science" courses that do not provide equivalent material.
